BLOCKS by SIZE | 7.5" Quilt Blocks |
Ten inch quilt blocks are a favourite of quilters. However if you are wanting to make a smaller version of any given 10" block, with a little finagling, the math for a 7½ inch block is not that difficult. And -- for the blocks below, I have done that math for you! A win-win!
Midnight Pinwheel
Free Quilt Block Pattern
The Midnight Pinwheel quilt block is a five patch block (so named because it is designed on a 5 x 5 grid) containing squares, half square triangles and flying geese patches.
Rather than construct the block as five rows of five patches, I prefer to sew it as an uneven nine patch for the simple reason that I like to work with "chunks" rather than in rows. However, do not let my method sway you. Choose your favourite sewing method to construct this very pretty block.
